Does someone have any information about this particular Spyderco, the Michael Walker Carbon Fiber?
Thanks in advance,

I used to own one. It was a very high-end knife. I never saw one for sale for less than $250. They were made for Spyderco by Klotzli in Switzerland. They had ATS-34 blades and had anodized titanium clips and fittings.
 
Here's more information: It's probably the most desirable Spyderco that I don't have. When they were available brand new, I thought they were too expensive. In hindsight, I now realize that I was an idiot.

I regard this knife as the "William Henry" of Spyderco knives. (Imo, however, I think it is rarer than a currently available Wm Henry since the CF Walker is no longer in production--which was a limited run to begin with). It is a gentleman's folder made with high quality materials. For some it would be a safe queen for others it would be a high class edc.

If you can get one and you can afford it--it's a no-brainer decision for a Spyderco fan.
 
Shiden-Kaj, I purchsed this knife back in 1996. The edge of the blade came very dull and there was blade play when the knife was closed. I wonder how much it would be worth? I have it in storage somewhere. Maybe I can sell it. This was the very first carbon fiber with Titanium liner lock, ATS-34 blade. It was/is a cool knife.
 
Thanks for the info.
After doing some research myself I saw on the homepage of Klötzli that they sell a K22, made with left parts of the Spyderco C22. They are the same as the C22, except for the blade (thumbstud, 440C) and they don't have a clip (unfortunately). They offer even different varations with special decoration. Look at Klötzli

Thanks for the link Shiden-Kaj. I started to get real excited until I noticed--Where's the hole? ;)
